Rescued dogs enjoying new lease of life
Source: Chronicle News Service

Imphal, May 08 2022: Dr Thiyam Supriya, a dentist by profession, has been taking care of stray dogs ill-treated by people since the time of pursuing her dental studies at Greater Noida, Uttar Pradesh and has founded Woof Lover Trust to campaign against cruelty to dogs.

Dr Supriya established the Trust with the support of some like-minded people and it has been running a shelter facility for rescued dogs at Mongsangei.

The Woof Lover Shelter presently houses nine dogs which were rescued from being sold as meat.

Dr Supriya's daily routine involves preparing food including boiled chicken and feeding it to the dogs.

It is dangerous for people to get close to unknown dogs, but Dr Supriya has no such fear and easily mingles and plays with these dogs.

The dogs are also very affectionate towards her and indulge in jumping, licking her face and getting playful.

Speaking to TPC, Dr Supriya recalled that she founded Woof Lover Trust in September 2019 during her stay at Greater Noida and took care of street dogs found loitering at five college campuses of the area by feeding them, providing medical care and conducting sterilisation of dogs to control their population.

After this, she received much support from locals who appreciated her love for the dogs, she added, while recounting that she treated about 400 dogs of the area and so far has rescued 100 dogs.

Dr Supriya continued that after she returned to the state, she rescued two dogs from Sekmai that were being sold for their meat in May, 2021 .

She named the two dogs 'Tiger' and 'Queen' with both staying with her.

Queen recently bore seven puppies which have been adopted by various families.

She also mentioned that people can adopt the dogs from her shelter, but they must follow the adoption protocol.

Dr Supriya also informed that the Trust along with People for Animals with the support of Senapati Police on Saturday rescued five dogs from Senapati Bazar that were being kept in a jute bag by a woman for sale as meat.

The dogs are being kept at her shelter, she said.

Dr Supriya further pointed out that dog meat is banned under the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act, 1960.Despite it being illegal, dog meat is openly sold and consumed in Nagaland and Manipur due to inaction by authority concerned.

A dog is the most loyal animal one can find and the sights of binding their paws and mouth and stacked inside jute bag for sale as meat is heart-breaking, she said.

While appealing to the people to extend support in banning the sale of dog meat, she conceded that without public support the dog meat business will be unstoppable in the state.
